Does this count as child labor?

Lilly still has a love of laundry. She knows both words, washer and dryer. When the washer is loaded and started, she shouts "bubbles" as she watches the bubbles from the detergent form. Actually she only said bubbles to the washer when I forgot to put the detergent in before the washer was started. She screamed "bubbles" and started to hit the window on the washer. That's when I realized there was no detergent in the washer and now every time we start the washer, the Lilly bubble chant begins. She is a very good laundress so if anyone wants some help, she is available. Lilly charges a nominal fee of a glass of milk and bananas!

Here she is helping Daddy with the laundry:
